Abstract

Herein, newly synthesized Co(II)-Cltpy-based spin-crossover molecular materials composed of ClO4, BF4, PF6, and CF3SO3 are systematically investigated, emphasizing their structure–property interplay. The multi-faceted character of the ligand 4′-chloro-2,2′:6′,2′′-terpyridine (Cltpy) causes the Co(II)-based molecular materials to show electronical behavior crucial to spin crossover involving crystallographic packing and disparity in the zero-point energy difference, ΔE0HL, through electrostatic interactions mediated by their cationic and anionic moieties as well as other dipolar and quadrupolar moieties. All crystalline coordination networks were found to be phase-pure, well-crystallized, and geometrically constrained, subsequently demonstrating fascinating crystal packing along with a gradual, incomplete temperature-dependent magnetic response and negligible elastic interactions among the Co(II)-spin-crossover centers. The ClO4 and PF6 analogs showed comparatively strong intra-chain and inter-chain interactions, resulting in substantially strong effective crystal fields experienced by the Co(II)-spin-crossover centers. This indicated large positive values of ΔE0HL and their distribution with considerable stabilization of the low-spin state over the high-spin state at higher temperatures, indicating an identical magnetic response close to the pure low-spin state. Alternatively, the BF4 analog demonstrated comparatively weak intra-chain interactions without having any inter-chain interactions, resulting in moderately weak effective crystal fields around the Co(II)-spin-crossover centers. This signified negative values of ΔE0HL and their distribution towards stabilization of the high-spin state over the low-spin state, as exhibited by the enhanced magnetic response up to room temperature. In the case of the CF3SO3 analog, discrete molecular moieties were observed without any intra- and inter-molecular interactions, which was attributed to its weakest effective crystal-field strength among all the compounds reported herein, essentially signifying moderately large negative values of ΔE0HL and their distribution towards stabilization of the high-spin state over the low-spin state, as indicated by the rapid increase in the magnetic response to the greatest extent. Further, the EPR data of the reported compounds at 8 K showed an excellent fingerprint for the formation of the LS Co(II). The significant variation in the polarity of the individual counter anions played a vital role in the alteration of the crystal packing, along with varying intra-, inter-molecular, and electrostatic interactions. The experimental results were further integrated with the newly developed physically interpreted theoretical model (electrostatic-mechanoelastic model) to highlight the role of electrostatic interactions in combination with the alteration in the crystallographic packing for successfully reproducing the experimental magnetic behavior.

Co(ii)- cltpy基自旋交叉分子材料中静电相互作用引起的零点能差变化
本文系统地研究了新合成的由ClO4−、BF4−、PF6−和CF3SO3−组成的基于Co(II)- cltpy的自旋交叉分子材料,重点研究了它们的结构-性能相互作用。配体4′-氯-2,2′:6′,2′-三吡啶(Cltpy)的多面性使得Co(II)基分子材料通过其阳离子和阴离子部分以及其他偶极和四极部分介导的静电相互作用,表现出对自旋交叉至关重要的电子行为,包括晶体结构的填充和零点能量差(ΔE0HL)的差异。所有的晶体配位网络都是相纯的、结晶良好的、几何约束的,随后显示出迷人的晶体堆积,以及逐渐的、不完全的温度依赖磁响应和Co(II)自旋交叉中心之间可忽略不计的弹性相互作用。ClO4−和PF6−类似物表现出较强的链内和链间相互作用,导致Co(II)-自旋交叉中心经历了相当强的有效晶体场。这表明ΔE0HL具有较大的正值,并且它们的分布在较高温度下低自旋态相对于高自旋态具有相当的稳定性,表明具有接近纯低自旋态的相同磁响应。另外,BF4−类似物表现出相对弱的链内相互作用,而没有任何链间相互作用,导致Co(II)-自旋交叉中心周围的有效晶体场中等弱。这表明ΔE0HL的负值及其分布趋向于高自旋态相对于低自旋态的稳定,如室温下增强的磁响应所示。在CF3SO3−类似物的情况下,观察到离散的分子片段,没有任何分子内和分子间的相互作用,这归因于其有效晶体场强度在本文报道的所有化合物中是最弱的,基本上意味着ΔE0HL的中等大的负值,并且它们的分布趋向于高自旋态比低自旋态稳定,这表明磁响应在最大程度上快速增加。此外,所报道的化合物在8 K时的EPR数据显示了LS Co(II)形成的良好指纹图谱。单个反阴离子极性的显著变化,以及分子内、分子间和静电相互作用的变化,在晶体包装的改变中起着至关重要的作用。实验结果进一步与新开发的物理解释理论模型(静电-力学弹性模型)相结合,以突出静电相互作用与晶体结构变化相结合的作用,成功地再现了实验磁性行为。
